My household receives Section 8 (Housing Choice Voucher) rent assistance. Am I eligible for the subsidy?
Per the Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA), households are not eligible if they are receiving other rental subsidies (example, Federal Housing Choice Voucher, Section 8 rent assistance, regional assistance) for the same unit. The Housing Choice Voucher is designed to cover rent increases, so long as the increases stay within the parameters of Fair Market Rents. If you have questions about your Voucher, contact [email protected] or 503-846-4739.
